I stopped using UPS when I was hit with a bill of $45 for brokerage and 
customs clearance fees. I now tell all US suppliers up front that items are 
NOT to be shipped via UPS. One supplier slipped up and shipped via UPS anyway. 
I told UPS to hold off on delivering the item. I contacted the supplier who 
talked to UPS. The item was returned to the supplier who then mailed it out 
USPS as I had first instructed them.
